Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.

Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Michael Ledo Miranda (Rosamund Pike) is a small town nurse and cake decorator. She is cool, calm, and calculating and lives alone. She is overly occupied with the thoughts of germs, and dreads sharing a pen. Her friend hooks her up with a blind date (her ex). By coincidence another man, William Finn (Shiloh Fernandez) shows up at her door and rapes her. The only way things could get worse is if her dad was Nick Nolte. with a dog..and it was.William goes to prison and Miranda has trouble functioning as a twitch has developed in her hand. Strangely, the distressed victim visits her attacker in prison, apparently some kind of odd therapy.For some reason I didn't see the overly predictable end coming. Rosamund gave us an excellent performance in a what qualifies as a low budget "B" drama/thriller.Guide: F-bomb, rape (from behind and brief)

genesisoriana They could have done something better with the subject, but instead, they made a very predictable film. I had the feeling that something was missing through the whole film. It's one of those that you easily forget, there is nothing memorable. Probably the only good things were the performance by Nick Nolte and Rosamund Pike.

Solmack ****************Spoiler Alert****************It's not as bad as most reviews that I read claim it to be. Rosamund Pike delivers an excellent misleading performance. The movie is not about revenge like many people seem to believe. It's more complex than that. The guy was a rapist, but she has always been a psychopath - there are hints scattered all over the movie, including the death of her first patient. - In his "misfortune" he picked the wrong victim, and she found in him the perfect lab mouse to practice with. The plot twist was not a last minute thing. It was hinted all over the movie. Rosamund's poker face performance distracts you from the obvious goal. Like a true psychopath.

sallymartin13 Looked forward to seeing this movie as I'm a fan of Rosamund Pike. Things started off well enough and I thought I was in for a good thriller/revenge type movie. Alas, t'was not meant to be. Can honestly say it's one of the worse movie's I've seen for a while. The acting was good, but the characters were poor and ill defined. But the worst thing was the plot, the plot was ridiculous! There was little or no reason given for any of the significant things that happened. At a particular point in the movie I was beginning to think it was getting a tad weird, could she possibly be having erotic thoughts about her rapist? Anyway, in the end it just goes so left field, without warning or any insight from the character. Was very disappointed to see such a good actor (Pike) in such a bad movie. Do yourself a favor, don't waste your time.
